Lyrics
Once upon a
Time has faded to dust
Wholesaled our own
Heart's economy of trust..

Bed lights, Hind-sight
Oh for a place that is kind!
Tail-lights, Left right
Losing the compass of my mind

I lost my sight in the blink of an eye
Losing the will to see color
Love not held tightly
keels over and dies
and the loss of it drove me to wonder


Heart beat
Where are you hiding?
My own street
don't feel the slightest bit
familiar now
I'm running out of inside-out to show you..

Beauty!
Truth worn like Pleats of Fortuny
Still it's nobodies duty to save me now
The world outside is suicidal
So don't look at me now.


Cliff side
High tide
Cold as the things that I touch

High rise
Dead eyes
Give me a place I can trust!

Kissed you goodbye in the dead of the night
Leaving you the sweetest of slumber
The secrets of life stare you dead in the eye
when you're two steps away from Forever

Heart break
Tied up with Gossamer
Too late
Morning the loss of her
won't save her now
She's glorified the brighter side of you

Beauty!
Truth worn like Pleats of Fortuny
Still it's nobodie's duty to save me now
The world outside is suicidal


***
Lately the walls of my mind
Slowly closing in and I
I can't speak Love as perfectly


Feels like
I've taken too much
Slowly coming down off of you
Please don't take it personally..

****

I lost my sight in the blink of an eye
Losing the will to see color

The Truth veiled politely
will surely demise
and the loss of it drove me to wonder…wonder...

Heart beat
Where are you hiding
My own street
don't feel the slightest bit
familiar now
I'm running out of inside-out to show you


The sun takes off into daylight
The people with faces of bakelite
Beleague me now
The world outside is suicidal
So don't look at me now.
